They woke up and Hermione turned to Severus with serious intentions.

"Severus? Really need to discuss where this is going," she said, trembling. 'What if Severus leaves me?' she thought.

"Hermione, no one will find out. And if they do, well, I don't know what will happen. Let's just hope no one does," Severus said determined not to lose Hermione.

They went back to sleep until later when they thought they heard a noise outside of the room. "What the ..." Severus started and got up to open the door. When he did, Hermione and Severus heard an explosion of anger.

"You sick son of a bitch. How could you do this to her?" a certain Ron Weasley said to a panic stricken Severus Snape. He wouldn't of known if he didn't force it out of Ginny. After Ginny told him that Hermione never came to bed every night, Ron went outside and followed Hermione when he saw Severus pick her up and carry her. He didn't need Hermione to tell him for what he figured correctly. "Well?" Ron continued "Where is she?"

"That is enough Mr. Weasley," Severus said coldly. "I must insist that you le..." but Ron pushed through the door, closely followed by Harry, and saw Hermione in his bed.

"Hermione, what did you let this bastard do to you?" Ron asked, red with the rage he was feeling. But not near as angry as Hermione was starting to feel.

"Shut up Ron...you don't know anything. Severus loves me. And I love him," spoke a sincere Hermione.

"Yeah right! What are you on?" asked an incredulous Ron.

"Ron, stop! Is this true? You really love each other?" asked a suspicious Harry Potter.

"Yes Mr. Potter. We do," replied Severus. He looked ready to kill Ron, his face was deadly pale and he was clutching his wand.

"I don't care Snape, I'm going to Dumbledore!" said Ron heatedly.

"Wait Ron," said Harry. "I'll come with you."

"Ron, Harry? Please just listen!" Hermione called out after them. She would have run but she was still weak from the other night.

"Fuck you both!" they heard Ron shout and then get carried off by Harry to see the headmaster.

"Immature boy...." said Snape angrily.

"What will we do?" asked a scared, yet extremely angry, Hermione.

"Just wait and see what happens...someone was bound to find out eventually," replied Severus.

"Oh God Severus..." Hermione cried and ran into her lover's arms only to await what would happen in the future. Now that their love was exposed.
